im thinking about it scott. I am pretty sure if i do buy the house, i would wait a good 6 months or so, so i can get settled in with the new job.

that would prob be a good plan. chances are the housing slump will continue for at-least another 18 months so you have time.

If you get a home loan, make sure you get a 30 year fixed rate mortgage. Adjustable rate ones are causing all the problems right now.

aaahhh, so you use their ev-do internet service? i have that through sprint.

verizon caps off your downloads at 6gb per month. if you use that for downloading crap, they could have cut you off.

krdshrk

Oh - it's one of those cellular wireless things? Not just wifi?

bingo!

alot of ppl in CA, FL and some other areas have a loan where you only pay the interest on the loan since NORMALLY in those places home values raise really really fast and then when you sell it you pay the rest of the loan off with ease. but now those loans are burning ppl because home values are not going up as fast.

thats what it sounds like. its great for internet on the road, but im not sure how id like it for home use. I Comcast Cable internet at home, and i use my Sprint EV-DO for when im on the road, and for the Car-PC

it may be wifi lol i dont even know the card i have goes into my usb port its the USB720 model....i download a crap load of stuff with no problems its unlimited....i pay 60 bucks amonth though which is crazy but i need to be able to get online at all times with my laptop for work when im out of the office. My computer already has the built in wifi card but i have to use their card when im away from an acess point. Its calle dnational acess broadbrand or sumthin

Yeah that's the verizon cellular wifi. Why USB though? I thought those were PCMCIA cards.

Big_Jim

they make the usb models for more universal uses. PCMCIA is outdated man lol. the new hottness is "expresscard"

Rob, be careful. the Verizon "unlimited" data is in fact limited at 6gb transfer per month. They will cut you off, and even term. your contract. luckily enough, if they term ur contract, they waive the ETF.

Sprint is the only one that offers true "unlimited" data.

zanson

it's still ugly

so is the new STI. doenst make it any slower. styling is subjective.

the "no lift shifting" feature is really really cool! this just proves that when GM tries they can actually build some cool cars. the new cobalt SS is going to have the same drive train. thats gonna be a beast!

i would love to get on of the panel van versions and put some kinda fake Flower delivery service info on the side...hehe the Ultimate sleeper!

CricketC

ugh, is it friday yet? mondays suck....especially timesheet/timecard mondays and figuring out overtime and just doing math in general.....shannon + mornings + math = ugh

YourNameHere

krdshrk
